Tel Aviv: Israeli company Asio Technologies, has delivered dozens of additional NavGuard systems to a US defence technology company, for integration into its drone platforms.
This delivery marks another milestone in Asio Technologies’ longstanding relationship with the customer, following an extensive evaluation period that included testing the systems on their drones in diverse flight scenarios, both during the day and at night.
NavGuard is a cutting-edge, jam-proof navigation solution that ensures uninterrupted operations from take-off to landing for drones and unmanned aerial systems (UAS). By leveraging state-of-the-art machine vision technology, artificial intelligence (AI), advanced optics, and sensor fusion capabilities, NavGuard enables accurate and autonomous GNSS-free navigation, even in environments where the GNSS signal is compromised, jammed, or simply unavailable.
With its real-time optical navigation system, NavGuard enables safe and sustainable 24/7 drone missions under complete GNSS blackout conditions. It offers a reliable and precise positioning solution, allowing drones to navigate with low latency and high accuracy throughout their missions. This capability is particularly crucial for tactical drone applications in defence, homeland security, and infrastructure security sectors, where payload capacity, flight time limitations, and continuous operation under all conditions are critical factors.
David Harel, CEO of Asio Technologies, said that NavGuard’s ability to provide accurate positioning in real-time, even in challenging GNSS blackout conditions, ensures operational freedom anytime and anywhere.
“We remain committed to delivering innovative solutions that continually meet and exceed the evolving needs of our valued customers,” David Harel added.
